Absolutely not, the automatic choke is defective. Replace that and it should be fine. It will need to be adjusted when cold to fully closed position. Check vacuum lines as vacum pulls the choke back when engine is started.

The manual may not be clear, read warm line 3 below, read it again. The 450 manual I read says something similar under warm start. Are you opening the choke after turning on the ignition? Before pulling the starter rope? Flooding is the most common hard start problem with 2-cycle engines. If you are opening the choke I recommend you contact Husqvarna for guidance. They will likely send you to a neighborhood dealer, gratis. HusqvarnaUSA.com/ContactUs http://www.husqvarna.com/us/homeowner/support/customer-support/Start Procedure Cold:

Ignition on/off to on.

Set compression release – optional step even if saw is equipped with a compression release.

Pull (close) choke, set fast idle (done when choke closed on some saws); pull starter and listen for an attempt to start. once heard (usually two pulls; no more than 4).

Set compression release – optional step even if saw is equipped with a compression release.

Push (open) choke pull starter until it starts. (usually first pull).

Warm:

Ignition on/off to on.

Set compression release – optional step even if saw is equipped with a compression release.

Pull (close) choke, set fast idle (done when choke closed on some saws) – Do not pull with choke closed.
